Definitions

  • R is hydrogen or acetyl and R and R2 independently represent hydrogen, (C 1-4 )-alkyl, benzyloxy, mono- or di-(C 1-3 )-alkylamino-(C 1-4 ) -alkyl, (C 1-3 ) -alkoxy-(C 1-4 )-alkyl, hydroxymethyl, hydroxy-(C 2-4 )-alkyl, nitro, or R 1 and R 2 taken together with two consecutive carbon atoms of the pyridine nucleus form a benzene ring optionally substituted by one or two methyl or ethyl groups are known in the patent literature; see, for instance, US patent No. 4341785 published on July 27, 1982.
  • the known process was carried out by reacting a molar amount of a 3-halogen rifamycin S of formula wherein R represented hydrogen or acetyl and halo preferably represented bromine or iodine, with from about 2 to about 8 molar equivalents of an appropriate 2-amino-pyridine of formula III.
  • a compound of formula was obtained, which was preferably isolated and characterized, and was subsequently treated with ascorbic acid in order to give the end compounds of formula I.
  • the present invention refers to a new method for preparing pyrido-imidazo-rifamycins of general formula wherein R is hydrogen or acetyl, R and R 2 independently represent hydrogen, (C 1-4 )-alkyl, benzyloxy, mono- or di-(C 1-3 )--alkylamino-(C 1-4 )-alkyl, (C 1-3 )-alkoxy-(C 1-4 )-alkyl.
  • (C 1-4 )-alkyl indicates straight or branched alkyl groups as, for instance, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, sec.-butyl, isobutyl and tert.-butyl, while the term (C1-3)-alkoxy mainly designates the groups methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy or isopropoxy.
  • the compounds of formula I are endowed with outstanding antibacterial properties both in vitro and in vivo. Because of their poor absorption by animal organs and tissues when administered by oral route, they have proved to be particularly useful in combatting the microbial infections of the gastro-intestinal tract.
  • rifamycin 0, which is a commercial product is used as the starting rifamycin substrate Easily obtainable by chemical transformation of rifamycin B, as described in French Patent FM 739, or directly obtainable by fermentation of Nocardia strains (unexamined Japanese publication No. 15518/66) or by fermentation of Streptomyces strains (Belgian patent No. 751182) ].
  • the rifamycin 0 is reacted under mild conditions with a selected 2-aminopyridine of formula III, in a suitable solvent or solvent system from which, by means of techniques known to a man* skilled in the art, the desired end products are recovered, wherein R 1 and R 2 have the above mentioned meanings and R is acetyl, with yields varying from about 60% to about 90% calculated on the starting rifamycin O.
  • the compounds of formula I so obtained can subsequently be subjected to an alkaline hydrolysis to give the corresponding compounds of formula I wherein R is hydrogen.
  • a molar amount of rifamycin 0 of formula II is reacted with from about 1 to about 9 molar equivalents of a 2-aminopyridine of formula III and, preferably, from about 2 to about 6 molar equivalents of said aminopyridine.
  • the reaction is carried out in the presence of a solvent or of a solvent system, which is generally selected among those commonly used in rifamycins chemistry.
  • a solvent or of a solvent system which is generally selected among those commonly used in rifamycins chemistry.
  • aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene and toluene
  • lower halogenated hydrocarbons like methylene chloride, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane and analogs
  • lower alkanols like methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol or n-butanol
  • Lower alkyl esters of lower aliphatic acids, glycols, acetonitrile, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran can also conveniently be employed.
  • solvents can be used alone, or in admixture among them, or also in admixture with water, in different volumetric ratios.
  • the solvents which have given the best results are benzene, toluene, the lower halogenated hydrocarbons, the lower alkanols alone or in admixture with water, acetonitrile, glycols, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran.
  • the reaction takes place at ambient pressure and within wide limits of temperature, for instance between the room temperature and the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture. Usually, an interval comprised between the room temperature and about 60°C gives absolutely satisfactory results.
  • the reaction is completed in a period of time which essentially depends on the nature of the aminopyridine substrate of formula III and on the conditions in which the reaction is carried out. Generally, from about 10 to about 100 hours are required to obtain the end products of formula I with the desired yields.
  • the reaction course can be favored if the reaction itself is carried out in presence of iodine or of an appropriate system iodide/oxidizing agent, wherein the iodide can be, for instance, the iodide of an alkali or an alkaline-earth metal and the hydroiodide of the same starting 2-amino-piridine and the oxidizing agent can be an agent capable of oxidizing, in the employed reaction conditions, the iodide ion, in order to release iodine in the reaction ambient.
  • the iodide can be, for instance, the iodide of an alkali or an alkaline-earth metal and the hydroiodide of the same starting 2-amino-piridine
  • the oxidizing agent can be an agent capable of oxidizing, in the employed reaction conditions, the iodide ion, in order to release iodine in the reaction ambient.
  • the iodine, or the system iodide/oxidizing agent can be present in the reaction ambient respectively in amounts from about 0.1 to about 1 molar equivalent, or in an amount which releases from about 0.1 to about 1 molar equivalent of iodine, for each mole of starting rifamycin O.
  • reaction solution must subsequently be treated with a suitable reducing agent, like, for instance, ascorbic acid, isoascorbic acid or dihydroxyacetone.
  • a suitable reducing agent like, for instance, ascorbic acid, isoascorbic acid or dihydroxyacetone.
  • the so obtained compounds of formula I in which R is the acetyl group are recovered from the reaction medium according to conventional techniques.
  • the excess of unreacted aminopyridine of formula III is eliminated from the organic phase by means of an aqueous solution of a mineral acid.
  • the organic phase is then separated and optionally dried on a suitable agent like, for instance, sodium sulfate, and the end product is obtained by evaporating the solvent.
  • the desired compounds are obtained by crystallization from the reaction ambient at a temperature of about O° to 10°C when solvent systems containing water are used.
  • the compounds of formula I can be purified, if necessary, by crystallization from suitable solvents or solvent systems.
  • the I.R. spectra have been performed in KBr with a Perkin-Elmer 281-B spectrophotometer.
  • the 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR spectra have been performed in deuterochloroform with a Varian XL 100 spectrophotometer by using tetramethylsilane as internal standard.
  • the U.V. spectra have been performed in absolute methanol with a Perkin-Elmer 552 spectrophotometer.
  • the so obtained compound has the same chemico-physical characteristics as that obtained in Example 1.
  • the compound was prepared according to the procedure described in example 2, starting from 15.1 g (0.02 moles) of rifamycin O and 6.48 g (0.06 moles) of 2-amino-5-methyl-pyridine. Yield 12.6 g (80% of theoretical). M.p. 193°-198°C (decomposition).
  • Example 7 The procedure of example 7 is repeated, keeping the reaction solution at room temperature for 20 hours and in presence of 11 g (0.043 moles) of iodine. After treatment with 130 ml of aqueous 20% solution of ascorbic acid, 160.4 g (77% of theoretical) of title compound were obtained, identical with that obtained in Example 1.
  • Example 10 By employing the same molar ratio rifamycin 0/2-amino--4-methyl-pyridine as in Example 10, using 450 ml of a 10:13 (v/v) mixture of ethanol/water and working under the same reaction conditions of Example 9, 91 g of pure title product were obtained with a yield of 86.7% of theoretical.
